I'd like to get my dh a martial arts dvd for his birthday, but have NO IDEA. He likes any really, has seen most, but nothing recently. I remember he liked Ong Pak. Is there a number 2. Also, we do have a blue ray player but not one blue ray dvd. Is there anything that would look in blue ray? (not ness martial arts).

TIA...

Thanks. I don't have a clue about these things. Is it the Ong Pak follow-up or something else?

Different
Look on Imdb it gives a brief summary

Buy a themed present:

1. Buy the blu-ray of Bruce Lee's Game of Death. It should be in his collection regardless.

2. In Kill Bill, Uma Thurman wears the iconic yellow tracksuit that Bruce Lee wears in Game of Death. So buy Kill Bill, too.

3. Then buy the tracksuit itself: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B001LS2B5W/ref=asc_df_B001LS2B5W5554989?smid=A28ZJVVQEBWA55&tag=shoppingmp11168-21&linkCode=asn&creative=22218&creativeASIN=B001LS2B5W

4. And maybe a samurai sword, so he can pretend to be Uma Thurman.

Love it Belfast! He will look at me like I am bonkers. He is the kind of guy who wants a work shirt for his birthday!! I got the IP Man one, in blu ray. I see there seem to be a few of them, so I can get him follow up for xmas! He does already have a Brucie box set...but not blu ray.

Are you saying you're going to do my idea, or just stick with IP Man?

Sorry, just IP Man, but thanks!

Kung fu panda ?
Hell it's my favourite anyway smile
Bruce Lee films always seem to go down a treat with martial arts enthusiasts.
